What is the Belmont Stakes?

The Belmont Stakes is the last leg of the American Triple Crown of horse racing. It’s a Grade I Thoroughbred stakes races. The Belmont Stakes is 1??1/2 miles, or 12 furlongs, which makes it the longest race in the Triple Crown.
The Belmont is run on the dirt trail (also known as”Big Sandy”) at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York. It was first raced in 1867, making it the earliest jewel in the Triple Crown (and the fourth oldest race in North America). However, the race was not run in 1911 or 1912, which explains the reason why the Kentucky Derby is still the longest continuous sporting event in the country. The Belmont has ever been run in or around New York City, having hurried at Jerome Park, Morris Park (both closed) and Aqueduct along with Belmont, which is just east of Queens.
Aside from being the last obstacle for Triple Crown contenders, the Belmont is known for Secretariat’s 31-length success in 1973, which secured his Triple Crown name and place the current world record at 2:24 for 1??1/2 miles on dirt.
